T-Sides Elsewhere, June 2nd Edition
Summer’s basically here. I can taste it. Spent my Memorial Day Weekend in the green bounty of Vermont. The minute my train rode into Vermont’s green border, the smile on my face couldn’t be removed. Managed to get a little work done while I was there, though — Wrote an 8+ for Ear Farm on...
